Student Sample: Middle School
11:15
by Jordan W., seventh grade poet
11:15 on a Friday night
And the wind pounds
On the window pane and I’m pacing ‘round the living room
And the wind howls
Owoo, owoo, owoo, owoo
Waiting
For the email she’ll send
I’m thinking about what she’s do-in
And I’m whining for yesterday
And the wind howls
Owooo, owoo, owoo, owoo
Every night it’s the same.
